"Religion and Irreligion in Victorian Society" presents eleven specially commisioned essays which celebrate the work of Robert K. Webb, one of the foremost historians in modern Britain. The contributors, established scholars from Britain, Canada, Australia, and the United States, address some of the central themes in the history of nineteenth-century religion, including evangelicalism and the culture of the market economy, religious issues in the liberal politics of the 1830s, the radical atheist Robert Taylor, Charles Darwin, the Victorian ideal of "manliness," nineteenth century images of Mary Magdalene, the Jews in Victorian society, colonialism, the role of women missionaries as models of female achievement, and spiritualism during World War I. Together these cutting-edge essays make a significant contribution, providing fascinating cultural insight into the role of religion in Victorian society.
